A UNITED STATES PATENT Orricnt HENRY S. DIMOOK, OF PHELPS, NEW YORK.

WATER-COOLER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 269,024, dated December 12, 1882. Application filed September 25, 1882, No model.)

I 0 all whom "at may concern Be it known that I, H. S. DIMOGK, of Phelps, in the county of Ontario, and in the State of New York, have invented certain'new and useful Improvements in ater-Coolers; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.

The object of this invention is to provide an improved water-cooler, having the water and ice chambers so arranged as to effectually cool the water without placing the ice therein, as more fully hereinafter specified. 'These objects I attain by the means illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 represents a' vertical sectional view of my improved cooler, and Fig. 2 a similar view taken on the line or w of Fig. 1.

The letter A indicates the body of the cooler,- which may be of rectangular, cylindrical, or other shape, and provided with a metallic lining, as usual.

B indicates a vertical partition, located within the cooler A, and dividing the same into two compartments or chambers, O D. The chamberD is provided with a curved partition, E, which divides it into two compartments, the loweroneofwhichcommunicates withthelower part of the chamber (J by means of a tube, F, which contains sponge or other filtering material.

The letter G indicates a drip-pipe extending from the partition E down through the body of the vessel A, for the purpose hereinafter described.

The vessel A is provided with a cover, H, by means of. which it may be closed, and the lower compartment of the chamber D is provided with a draft-opening, I, through which the cold water may be drawn off.

The water in the larger compartment, being in contact with the vertical partition, becomes cooled to a certain extent, thus ettectually utilizing the ice. The ice is placed in the upper chamber of thecompartment D and the water in the compartmentO, from whence it filters into the lower chamber ofcoinpartment D, from whence it is drawn OK as required for use. The

waste water from the ice escapes through the drip-tube.

Having thus described my invention, what- I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s

A water-cooler constructed with two vertical chambers, one of which is divided into two compartments by means of a curved partition,

the upper one adapted to contain ice, and provided with a driptube,'the lower one being connected \\i.h the other chamber by means of a filtering-tube, and with a discharge-apexture for drawing off the Water, substantially as and for the purposes specified. V

In testimony whereof I affix my signature, in presence oftwo witnesses, this 11th day of August, 1882.

HENRY s. DIMOCK.
